Rectangular Metal Bowl Set – Iron, Zinc, Grey
Product description
This set of three rectangular iron bowls works as practical plant holders, storage tubs, or simple decorative containers. Made from iron with a zinc finish, the bowls have a calm, industrial character that suits Scandinavian interiors—use them to gather everyday items, style seasonal arrangements, or organise plants without visual clutter.
The design is defined by clean lines and subtle texture: ribbed sides, softly rounded corners, and a slightly rolled rim that gives the bowls a finished, crafted look. Each bowl features sturdy side handles, making them easy to move between rooms or lift from a shelf. The dark grey surface has a muted, timeworn feel, complemented by a thin warm-toned band detail that adds depth without becoming decorative noise.
With three sizes included, you can create a cohesive arrangement across different surfaces—one on the floor next to a sofa, one on a console table, and one on open shelving—while keeping the same material language throughout the home.

Why this product stands out
Many metal planters and storage boxes look either too polished or overly rustic. These bowls sit in the middle: the zinc-treated surface helps the metal feel grounded and functional, while the ribbed sides and warm band detail provide quiet structure. The result is a versatile container set that works for both styling and daily storage—easy to live with, easy to combine with wood, stone, ceramics, and linen.
The three formats also solve a common interior problem: how to keep different zones tidy without introducing multiple materials. Use the largest size for bulky items, the medium for daily essentials, and the smallest for details you want close at hand.
How it works in the home
Place the largest bowl on the floor in the living room for blankets, firewood, or larger potted plants (use an inner pot or liner). The medium size fits well on a hallway console for gloves, scarves, and keys, keeping the entry calm. The smallest bowl is ideal on a kitchen shelf for onions and garlic, on a desk for papers and cables, or in a bathroom for rolled towels and toiletries.
For plant styling, these bowls are well suited as outer covers: set nursery pots inside to protect the metal and make rearranging simple.
